Great Location, Clean Spacious Home
Great location, walkable to downtown Beulah and the beach. Quick drive to attractions in the area and Frankfort. House comes with a well supplied kitchen and was very clean. Beautiful enclosed porch where we ate every meal looking out at the lake. If we’re back in the area we’re staying at this property.

Terrific house
We have stayed in the Frankfort/Beulah area for 14 years and this is the most perfect place we have found. Good location (walking distance to restaurants in Beulah), very helpful instructions, and thoughtful details -like multiple boxes of Kleenex in various rooms, scissors in the kitchen (!), steps for our little one to use in the bathroom, plenty of wastebaskets in bedrooms and bathrooms as well as in kitchen, travel crib for the baby, etc., that made it feel "like home" and a welcoming place. We are hoping to visit again next year!

Such a lovely place just across the road from Crystal Lake. Easy access to the public beach. Grandkids really appreciated using the kayaks and paddle boards that were available. House is nicely remodeled and furnished. Four bedrooms and two bathrooms were perfect for our family. Sunsets over the lake are amazing!

This property was even better in person than it appeared in the listing. It felt very spacious and nice views of the lake. Walking distance to Beulah beach, fishing pier, and shops. Property manager was responsive to a few questions, minor issues. We would definitely return.

Older but functional and affordable
Older property but all ages enjoyed. Stunning lake view, 9 bikes in garage to ride the short distance to town. Nicely furnished. Well stocked functional kitchen. Tight bathroom on main level. Not a luxury property but neither is the price. Communication was great, no problems. Short walk to public beach. We used the fire pit and brought a bunch of wood from home. Our Mothers’ day weekend was terrific!

Clean and Cozy Ski Weekend
Two families and a dog enjoyed hanging out in this clean, cozy place. It was only a 20-min drive to Crystal Mountain. We walked downtown for dinner to Five Shores Brewery one night and cooked in another night. It had all the utensils and cookware we needed to make our own taco bar. Views of the lake were beautiful. Would stay here again any time of year!

Beautiful view near town
Beulah is a little gem we didn't know about that is less traveled than Frankfort. This place has a great lake view, and you can walk into town with several excellent restaurants. There is plenty of space in the home that is very nicely decorated. I definitely would go back!

Awesome location
This house is located in an amazing spot. It’s right across the street from beautiful crystal lake(campsite in between lake so there’s no houses in between). There are paddleball courts a few houses down and downtown Beulah is a very short walk away. Communicating with the owner and check in was a breeze. Also, lots of summer activities were provided. I would definitely, and most likely will, stay here again.

Your perfect vacation getaway
One of the cleanest rentals I have ever stayed in. Thus house has it all, the location, the relaxation, any extra goodies you might need at the beach or for the trails. If you are the cook they have a wide variety of utensils, dishes, and glasses. The fenced in front yard was perfect for for the littlest kids and the dogs. Plenty of games to enjoy playing on the enclosed patio overlooking the lake. We didnt even have a chance to get to enjoy the fire oit in the back. We couldnt have asked for a better house, I would highly recommend for any family/group vacationing together.

Great Lake cottage vacation
Excellent location, conveniently located to downtown Beulah, Crystal Lake beaches and the Betsie River Bike Trail. The cottage was roomy, comfortable and clean. We loved hanging out on the porch and found the kitchen very well equipped. We took advantage of the bikes, kayak and grill. We had a fantastic week. Dan is a great host!

Beulah Renovated Bungalow
We were very comfortable sleeping 5 people and making meals in the updated kitchen or barbequing out on the backyard patio. Enclosed front porch had a large table to fit 8, plus comfortable lounge chairs to take in the beautiful views of the lake across the rv park. Appreciated the available bikes, kayaks, and paddle boards. Easy access to Beulah restaurants and Crystal Lake walking paths and beaches. Also a quick 15 minute drive to Frankfort. Perfect for us. Recommended.

A Crystal Lake Gem
What a wonderful place! Very spacious, lots of places to gather and plenty of corners to enjoy a book. The enclosed front porch has a great view of the lake and was a favorite spot for morning coffee and meals. Comfy beds already made up with nice linens and plenty of towels available. Kitchen is exceptionally well equipped and the dishwasher was a great addition and a sustainability plus in that we didn’t need to use paper plates/cups. Lots of puzzles and games and a backyard fire pit for an evening bonfire. Booking process simple and entry instructions were clear. Host was a great communicator and responses were quick. It felt like a home away from home and we look forward to staying here again!

Great place to make memories
The property was even better in person. The house was very spacious overall. It has been nicely remodeled while it still feels like a cozy cottage. It has four large bedrooms that comfortably slept 10 of us. All the the beds were very comfortable. The main entertaining space was very large with a large open concept family room and two large dining tables. Our favorite feature was having coffee on the enclosed front porch in the mornings. Beautiful views of Crystal Lake and so close to enjoy all the happenings in downtown Beulah. One of the best views in town for watching the July 4th fireworks. The house came with water toys, bikes, plenty of chairs for sitting around the fire pit and a very well stocked kitchen for entertaining. Communication was 5-star. Our family would definitely stay here again.
